Lost Monster Files

The cryptozoologists in this show are completely blind to the very real evidence they acquire in the show for the things they "can't explain". Luckily there are two people in the crew who don't shrug off the obvious and often stumble upon an actual explanation, much to the dismay of the CZs...

When presented with "inconclusive" on a dna test, cryptozooligists tend to see that as evidence of an unknown species. Instead of a poor sample, which would be almost certain given that I saw zero actual scientific collection methods.

It's over-sensationalized, somewhat entertaining, but ultimately, completely worthless. I wish there were actual analytical minds going through Sanderson's files, instead of people who saw complete fact in his writings and audio, and took them as gospel.

Love how professional the show is. Love the cast. Experts in their related fields , the guys Justin and Troy have over 30 years experience as animal / wildlife behavioral specialists . Showcases how they all have their own take on the subject whether skeptics or believers and discuss their points of view. The cryptozoologist has over 20 years in the field of cryptozoology and she's a Ufologist as well.

I love how this show takes on a real take of investigations with real people family members who live and breathe animals . They own and train exotic animals that live on each of their properties . This cast is the real deal.

Someone commented about a funny behind the scene with siblings goofing off and were offended by it. It was hysterical and genuine . To each their own, but they were extremely out of their minds with that comment . Just going outside their home they must be offended 🤣 Can't wait for the next episode !!!!!! Keep up the good work.

It's wonderful that there's a new cryptid show that highlighting the work and voice of Ivan Sanderson. Being able to watch and hear him while the cast explores his life's work is really something special.

The cast is an interesting mix of personalities. I like that there isn't consensus between them when discussing the animals and that they each have their own takes. Only the chupacabra episode has aired so far, but if it's any indicator of the quality of witnesses they bring on, I think we're in for a real roller coaster. The lady with the taxidermy was compelling and analytical while the rest were what you might expect at a local watering hole. I think that blend was perfect.

I have high hopes for the future of this show - great cast, compelling witnesses, and really well put together.

A good show for any fan of cryptozoology!

I enjoy the exploration aspect, but the pretend scientific nature is ridiculous.

There is no such field as "zoo-ology", no such practitioner as a "zoo-ologist", and the fact that that they use those terms kills off any pretense of professionalism.

The term's origin is the Greek word "zoe" (in English characters), which is pronounced "zo-ay" not "zoo-ay". The study of life, zoology, is therefore pronounced "zo-ology", and not "zoo-ology", and a person who works in the field, a zoologist, is pronounced as "zo-ologist", and not "zoo-ologist". A person who is not simply an actor, who actually works in the field would know that. They would have learned that even if they took a zoology (zo-ology) course as a college freshman, much less someone who claims to be a professional "zoo-ologist".

I love history and find the legends interesting, but as a person with a graduate degree who works in a STEM field, the unprofessionalism is like nails on a blackboard to me.

To be honest, I was super excited for this, I love lore and myths so I thought to give it a go.

However, it felt flat for me really quick. I didn't buy the "actors" behaviors, it felt way to fake for me which annoyed me from the get go. I continued watching mainly for the stories, but just to realise that it's a show like most others where they talk about these "monsters", find eccentric personalities to go out and search for them just to find absolutely nothing at all. For me this show only works as a background noise when I have nothing else to watch, I'm quite disappointed and hopefully something better shows up in the future.
